HOW OUR MEMBERS CONTRIBUTE:

The Denver Institute for Psychoanalysis and the Denver Psychoanalytic Society
are dedicated to the advancement of the understanding of psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic ideas. We believe that psychoanalysis provides a unique and unparalleled perspective of the human condition based upon a deep respect for the complexity and individuality of every person.

Each year our faculty and society members join together to contribute toward training, supervision, mentoring and participating in community outreach projects within our community. During the academic year, our faculty contributes over a thousand hours training licensed mental health professionals. We began two new training programs to provide child psychoanalytic training and advanced psychotherapy training for mental health professionals interested in the treatment of children. Many of our members are currently involved in helping with Katrina victims.   We also sponsored a task force in response to the Columbine School shootings. We provided volunteer debriefing services to the community in the aftermath of the tragedy. Subsequently, several articles were published** to summarize what we learned from that experience, to provide educational information to be used by other professionals.

[**"Healing After Columbine:  Reflections of Psychoanalytic Responders to Community Trauma" by Mary Ann Levy , Pamela Haglund, Linda Plaut, Robert Emde, Marguerite Stewart, Ronnie Shaw , Carol Ilvonen , Cathy Krown Buirski , Mel Singer, Rebecca Hea , and William Edwards (2004) in The Journal of the American Psychoanalytic Association 52:3

" Denver Analysts respond to the Columbine tragedy" by Levy, M.A., Stewart, M., Buirski, C.K., et al (2003) in The American Psychoanalyst 37(1):1 ]

We provide educational programs and a monthly educational lecture series to offer educators, scholars and interested mental health professionals access to current developments and debate within the field of psychoanalysis.
